Patch attached.

It turns out there is no way to control the mail body contents, so I had 
the choice here of introducing a new dcop method to kmail, or catch the 
korganizer openComposer call. I chose the last one, but it should be 
changed after the freeze.

The problem with this patch is that it needs to add a string to the config 
dialog. So while I was at it, I fixed the description of the other 
Outlook compatibility mode.

Can I commit this? It is a bugfix, because the iCal invitations were not 
compatible with Outlook.

Bo.
